UX Designer

At Beauty Pie, we don’t believe that the very best beauty products should be full of the excessive hidden markups that other luxury brands charge. We collaborate with the world’s leading labs so you can get direct access to our exceptional collection of extraordinary skincare, makeup and more - minus the unfair extra costs.  Because of this, what the customer sees and interacts with must be impactful, world class.
